Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $500.00 from B&H photo

Summary:

This lens is very sharp and contrasty. the first time I used it a made a full frame print of a head shot of my wife. The skin tone was very smooth but also sharp at the same time. The lens is built like a tank. The autofocus is acceptable for the kind of work I do. I have shot an entire wedding with this lens only. The price is less then 1/2 of the Pentax 28-70 f/2.8 pro lens.

Strengths:

Sharpness, build quality, price, zoom range.

Weaknesses:

It is a bit heavy,

Similar Products Used:

various lenszoom and fixed.

Customer Service:

have only used Tokina service one time, it was OK.
